No Ending Written The cold still grips this land I know it thaws just like these memories a fading crystal, a stranger’s soul but time has rot its frailties Where are you my guiding light? that wanton spirit of beggars love the muse of heart, my storm held kite the kiss, the laugh… my summers dove The embers of this fire grows the night, the night… the lonely night and sleep sings whispers in the cold in gusty feathers of frozen whites I fade from here to futures unknown where spirits thrive on gifts of hope no endings written, no plot is known a tireless searcher, for a heart of gold.

Sartre would affirm the opinion of no beggining nor end. And yet you clearly elucidate hope exists. That must be a wonderful gift- hope. Thank you for sharing your insight. "Sooner or later, Death makes a believer out of just about everyone." |

Park, any comment I can think of to put after this seems inadequate. So lets just say 'I read and enjoyed it' ![]() D I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life. a brand |

Where are you my guiding light? that wanton spirit of beggars love the muse of heart, my storm held kite the kiss, the laugh my summers dove The embers of this fire grows the night, the night the lonely night and sleep sings whispers in the cold in gusty feathers of frozen whites ===================================== P-man, this is exquisite writing... what an achingly beautiful piece this is... and your cadence is poetry in motion, it was melodic when read aloud. If I were truly a poet...Id write you a happy ending ![]() but since you are (a poet) and "a tireless searcher" I know you are going to write the perfect ending and hang the moon when you do. ![]() Of all the things in me I could never be, |

Sigh - another heart rendering poem, Park. Have you not heard, it's the journey not the ending that counts? Ah, well, hope this is based on fiction and the facts are much brighter. Cor |
